| Research Abstract |
We determined the rate constants and equilibrium constants of catalytic reactions on F1-ATPase as a function of rotary angle by manipulating individual F1 molecules. The results show ATP-binding process is the major torque-generating step. A novel single-molecule imaging system using polarized scattering light from a gold nanorod that has high spatiotemporal resolution was established to visualize the conformational change of the subunit, the torque-generating unit of F1. It was revealed that the subunit makes a power-stroke type conformational change. High-speed AFM was applied to visualize the conformational change of the subunit in the isolated stator ring with three subunits. subunits showed highly cooperative conformational transition, propagating the conformational state in the anticlockwise direction as the same as the rotor rotation.This finding means that the structural basis is programmed in the stator ring.
